Building on her family background in woodblock printing, artist Ayomi Yoshida has focused recently on large-scale installations that incorporate prints to achieve dramatic transformations of space. These total environments invite the public to engage with her investigations of time, life cycles in nature, sensory memory, and nostalgia.

Yoshida’s understanding of Yoshio Taniguchi’s architectural practice uniquely situates her to respond to his design of Asia Society Texas Center. This exhibition in the Fayez Sarofim Grand Hall will specifically reference the Water Garden and the recurring connections between interior and exterior spaces, both in our building and classical Japanese architectural traditions.
